Chapter 216

In class at that time, the teacher did not elaborate on who finally completed the C+ level task [The Teaching Building That Can't Be Left]. He just mentioned it in one sentence, and Yu Tu didn't pay too much attention to it.

But now, at this moment, everything seems to be clear. Who completed the task? The answer is right in front of us - the one who took away the 43 groups of badges that year must have been a teacher from Kunlun. They have not forgotten the sacrificed students, they always remember them.

Why are the former C-rank missions replicated here, other than allowing students to try to get rid of the "nightmare" in their hearts in an environment that is familiar to them?

Yu Tu looked at the door that he could never reach, and suddenly he had an idea.

It's a choice.

In the large-scale simulation on the snowy mountain, they would not die at all, and they themselves knew this deeply, so how they wanted to break through would only come from their own heart.

【Please escape from school in the right way. 】

What is the right way?

The way you think is right.

The talent of [Insight into Everything] was activated passively. Yu Tu blinked his eyes, and everything in front of him changed. The changes were not too big, but they were all in the subtle details, but they made this world seem more real.

The solid-colored floor tiles underfoot are old, and some of the tiles have movable edges. The white walls are a little peeling from the past. The oldest round lights are installed on the top. The corridor on the first floor has been equipped with anti-theft windows. Looking out through the gaps in the windows, there are dead trees outside. The flag-raising platform is shaded among the trees. Walking up the stairs, there is a large honor roll hanging in the stairwell, with blue-background photos arranged on it. The arc of the smile of every person in the photo is as standard as if measured with a ruler.

As soon as Yu Tu reached the first floor landing, he smelled a strong, dizzying smell of blood. Blood was dripping from the second floor and from higher places like a stream. Yu Tu stood in the middle of the blood flow, but the blood could not wet his shoes or splash onto his clothes.

What he saw was the distant past, an ending that had already been frozen in time.

Yu Tu walked upstream against the flow of blood. He was like a shadow that had passed through the cracks of time and mistakenly entered the past. The tragic case that was mentioned in a few words in the classroom was actually unfolding before his eyes.

Yu Tu climbed up to the platform on the second floor.

There is a huge protruding curved platform on the second floor of this teaching building. When Yu Tu explored this teaching building before, this platform was full of lifeless students. Some of them were punished to write a thousand-word self-reflection because of their mistakes, some were standing here to recite, and some were driven here to reflect because of unsatisfactory grades...

The scene at that time was bizarre and horrifying, but still had a bit of life in it, but now, Yu Tu only saw a pile of corpses. Thin, pale, hideous and horrible corpses were piled up in all directions, each with its eyes open, as if it was dead, but also as if it was not.

Yu Tu suppressed the goosebumps that suddenly crawled all over his body and took a closer look. Most of the bodies had no wounds. All of them were killed by a single sword in the throat, cleanly and neatly.

This was just a battle site in this teaching building, not the final one. Yu Tu continued to walk upwards along the flowing bloodstains. There was a pile of corpses at the entrance of the stairs, but they were no longer sorted out like on the platform. They were all lying on the stairs in a disorderly manner. Yu Tu saw a corpse in a school uniform, with half of a heart in its hand - the heart of a living person.

He was slightly stunned. Of the forty-three groups that were sent in because of errors in the mission level scanning, probably some of them had already died.

Yu Tu walked all the way to between the fourth and fifth floors before stopping. The fourth floor was still a classroom, and above the fifth floor was the rooftop. The passage leading to the rooftop was crowded with "students".

Their faces were pale, their smiles were weird, black spread out from their pupils, occupying the entire eyeballs, and the color of their school uniforms was also gray. The only bright thing was the bright red bloodstains splattered on their bodies.

Yu Tu saw the blood spreading under their feet. The blood was not the black and red that flowed between the stairs, but a dark red. The blood slowly spread out and became part of the blood flow.

At this moment, Yu Tu subconsciously forgot that this was what [Tenfu] had seen in the past and it was an established fact. He stretched out his hand to pull those students apart to see if the person surrounded by them was still alive, but his hand only passed through the air.

The students were real to him, but he couldn't touch them. Yu Tu passed through them like the wind passing through the ethereal air.

He walked past the crowded crowd and reached the rooftop, where two people were lying. One of them had his head tilted to one side and his chest had stopped rising and falling. The other was half leaning against the wall of the rooftop with a pool of dark blood under his body.

The combat uniform of the only survivor was tattered, with some wounds showing flesh and bones. He held a blood-soaked voice stone in his left hand and spoke with difficulty:

"I am... Qu Lianxi from Group 43... The mission level... was assessed as an error. My group... was completely wiped out... Please, those who come after me, be careful..."

The iron gate leading to the rooftop had been protected by several defensive amulets, but while he was speaking it had already begun to deform, making unpleasant creaking sounds, and was about to collapse.

As Qu Lianxi spoke, he kept looking at the feet of those students—there was one of his comrades-in-arms.

After explaining everything, he put the voice stone behind him. Qu Lianxi's right arm was gone, leaving only his left hand, so he held the sword in his left hand and supported himself to get up from the ground.

He spat out a mouthful of blood and whispered, "I haven't used the left-hand sword yet..."

Perhaps sword practitioners always have some similarities. At this moment, Yu Tu actually saw some of Meng Ziqiu's shadow in Qu Lianxi.

He raised his hand and swung the sword for the last time in his life. The sword light was as gentle as water waves, but it carried an unstoppable and overwhelming momentum.

Amid the sound of clanging swords, everything turned completely white. Yu Tu felt that the space around him was fluctuating unsteadily. He thought that the effect of [Talent] would end soon, but it did not. After the white light faded, he was still on the rooftop.

The rooftop had become a mess. The walls were so shabby that the red bricks inside were exposed. The floor tiles had broken into small pieces. The large iron gate leading to the rooftop had long disappeared. Everywhere was stained with a dark, sticky substance, leaving no place to step.

In the dim light and pungent smell, Yu Tu saw a figure at the place where the rooftop gate should have been. The figure stood there quietly, neither coming in nor leaving.

It's time sequence.

Lord of Kunlun Mountain, time sequence.

She is just like the one in the comics. When you see her for the first time, you won't notice her appearance at all. You will only think of the snow that never melts, the sword that splits the darkness, the domineering power that kills enemies thousands of miles away, and the loneliness that suppresses her peers. She stands here like a peerless divine weapon.

One month after the 43rd group was wiped out, someone took away the group emblem of the 43rd group. In just three days, the file of the C+ level mission [The Teaching Building That Cannot Be Leaved] was sealed. Yu Tu knew that it was the teacher from Kunlun who took action, but he did not expect that the one who came to carry out this mission was actually the Lord of Kunlun Mountain, Time.

Yu Tu realized only then that when he chopped off the sword previously, the past when [Insight into All Things] was passively triggered had already ended. However, due to the special position he was in, [Talent] was triggered a second time. What he saw this time was one month later.

The mess here couldn't have come from the last sacrifice of the leader of Group 43. If he had such powerful abilities, he wouldn't have ended up in such a tragic way. The current situation here could only be caused by the sequence of time.

Shi Xu stood at the door with her eyes closed for a long time, so long that Yu Tu almost thought she had fallen into a state of enlightenment after being struck by the sword. Then she slowly opened her eyes.

Every time Shi Xu appeared in the comics, she was a cold and powerful image, as silent as a piece of ten-thousand-year-old ice. But this time, Yu Tu saw a fleeting sadness in her eyes, as if the ice and snow had gained intelligence and had human emotions.

Finally, Shi Xu walked onto the rooftop. The rooftop was covered with dark stains, which soiled her shoes and clothes, but she was unaware of it. She kept walking until she came to the place where the leader of Group 43 had died. She scratched the ground with the tip of her sword, and the stains were swept away, revealing a voice transmission bead that had been soaked in blood and turned dark red. She bent down, picked up the bead and put it in her arms.

The messy roof was reflected in her eyes. She seemed to want to remember this space. Her hand stroked the hilt of the sword in her hand. The hilt was bare and seemed to be missing a tassel.

Time turned, and Yu Tu followed her out of the rooftop, walking down from the fifth-floor rooftop. He saw that the entire teaching building was in as much of a mess as the rooftop, with almost no intact facilities to be seen.

Yu Tu finally understood why the files of the C+ level mission [The Teaching Building You Can't Get Out of] were sealed within three days, because both the monsters and the rules of the teaching building were shattered to pieces under the sword of time. She killed her way through the entire teaching building on her own, and the restrictions were naturally solved.

The past brought by [Insight into All Things] ended the moment Shi Xu stepped out of the teaching building. The sense of reality quickly faded away in Yu Tu's eyes, and finally returned to the state before the talent was passively triggered.

The noisy but not chaotic sound of recitation filled Yu Tu's ears, making him feel as if he was in another world for a moment.

This is a weakened simulation of the strange events that happened before. What Yu Tu just saw can be said to be the answer given by the Lord of Kunlun Mountain.

Fight violence with violence, and stop killing with killing.

This was her answer.

Yu Tu turned around and looked towards the teaching building. From this angle on the first floor, he could see the platform on the second floor. Many students were standing there, with abnormally pale faces, horrifyingly black eyes, and mechanical and stereotyped expressions - they were all weird.

Humans cannot live in harmony with monsters. This is a lesson learned through countless bloodshed over thousands of years.

They are destined to fight these things all their lives until the monsters are completely eliminated, or they die in the battle, and their successors take over their will and continue to fight this battle.

Everyone has his or her own path and his or her own unswerving direction. Direction brings choices and different answers.

[The teaching building you can't leave] is Kunlun's [question of conscience]. When there are no comrades around, when you are completely clueless about the situation, when you are in overwhelming danger... what should you do when you question your conscience?
